CODE
<form action="mailto:YOUR_EMAIL_HERE" method="post" ENCTYPE="text/plain">
Name: <textbox id="name"></textbox><br>
Email: <textbox id="email"></textbox><br>
Message: <textarea id="message"></textbox><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

Change "YOUR_EMAIL_HERE" in the first line to your email address.
AutumnSunsets
i fixed the faults, your host is very slow when it comes to saving, the form should work now :P you're just bad at reading tutorials!

also make sure to change where it says admin@autumnsunsets.com to YOUR EMAIL or else i'll get all the sent forms
RealArtDesigns

Yeah, that doesn't work unless the visitor has his email client set up.
AutumnSunsets

RealArtDesigns

OP asked for simple. When you go simple here, there will be a few bugs.

Also I made one mistake. I closed a tag with the wrong tag.
RealArtDesigns

but noody could only put

Subject:
Email:
Mesagee:

Send Button

There's the implication that the form should be "usable", too.

That code is right, the only reason it dosent work with everyone is because the mailto: function usually brings up an email client like outlook or something and not everyone can have that installed on their computers. This form will work, just change this part
action="mailto:YOUR_EMAIL_HERE" it should be action="PHP_file". so whatever PHP file that AutumnSunset made for you, just plug it in there.

Or there is always Amailzing
